Conversion Option box

Select the option that corresponds to the type of conversion that you want to apply to the EDL. The conversion scripts that appear in this list depend on the frame rate of the EDL you are loading.

Fix TW Match Frames button

Enable to fix match frame errors. When you import an EDL that contains dissolves or timewarps, a match frame error may occur.

2:3 Removal Mode button
